[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 115947, member: 30"] Re: Small install spkrs with narrow coverage Actually the parabolic lens idea was used back in the 60s at some festivals-so the Meyer products are not the first to use the idea. I have never actually used a multiway driver with a parabolic dish-so I was just "guessing" at what would happen with the different sound sources hitting the dish at different points causing different time arrivals. In the Danley SBH10-we are doing some "unusual" things to the driver-how it is mounted an so forth so that the entire full bandwidth is entering each paraline lens from a single point. I can't go into details-but let's just say it is just like our synergy horns and how they sum together at a single point. Think of it like a synergy horn (so you have a single source of sound origin) mounted to a paraline lens (for pattern shaping). It is nowhere nearly as simple as a coax mounted to a paraline lens-that would be all screwed up. When you have sound sources that start as a single point-it is much easier to "manipulate" them the way you want. [/QUOTE]
